Kitchen Table Wisdom

"There is enormous pleasure in cooking good food simply and in sharing the cooking and the eating with friends & family. I think it is the best antidote to our overstressed modern lives. And there is nothing better than putting a plate of delicious food on the table for the people you love."
~ Alice Waters

"I would rather have roses on my table than diamonds on my neck"
~ Emma Goldman

"...no one is born a great cook, one learns by doing." ~ Julia Child {My Life In France}

"Eat together. No matter how modest the meal, create a special place to sit down together, and set the table with care and respect. Savor the ritual of the table. Mealtime is a time for empathy and generosity, a time to nourish and communicate." ~ Alice Waters

"Dining with one's friends and beloved family is certainly one of life's primal and most innocent delights, one that is both soul-satisfying and eternal." ~ Julia Child
